COVID-19 pandemic in the United States

COVID-19 pandemic in the United States

The COVID-19 pandemic in the United States is a part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). In the United States, it has resulted in 102,417,985 confirmed cases with 1,113,229 all-time deaths, the most of any country, and the twentieth-highest per capita worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic ranks first on the list of disasters in the United States by death toll; it was the third-leading cause of death in the U.S. in 2020, behind heart disease and cancer. From 2019 to 2020, U.S. life expectancy dropped by 3 years for Hispanic and Latino Americans, 2.9 years for African Americans, and 1.2 years for white Americans. These effects persisted as U.S. deaths due to COVID-19 in 2021 exceeded those in 2020, and life expectancy continued to fall from 2020 to 2021.

Background

After Tucker's 2002 album, Tanya, barely broke the top 40 of the country albums chart, she began to retreat from the spotlight. Since 2002, Tucker has only released one studio album, 2009's My Turn, an album of covers of songs by male country stars she listened to growing up, which was a disaster by Tucker's standards. She later recalled to Entertainment Weekly that "It should have been called My Sh—y Turn. They didn't use the final vocals I made. I had no control." After the release of My Turn, Tucker had more personal and pressing issues to deal with. She began to experience health problems from the chronic fatigue disease Epstein-barr. Both of her parents died, her father in 2006 and mother in 2012, leaving her emotionally drained and without management. Tucker's father had been her manager since the beginning of her career. Tucker recalled this time in her life, saying, "I quit touring. I didn't have a band. I went out to Malibu and sat in the sun and spent a lot of money."[1]

Once Tucker decided to come back to the spotlight, she went to various labels only to find that there was little interest. For a while, Shooter Jennings (son of Waylon Jennings) had been casually speaking with her about the possibility of him producing her new album. Plans for a new album really began to speed up once Jennings mentioned to friend and avid Tucker fan Brandi Carlile that he would like for her to write a new song for the album. Carlile and her long-time collaborators, Phil and Tim Hanseroth, wrote nearly an entire album's worth of material. Jennings told Carlile that since she was such a big Tanya fan, she should co-produce the album with him. Tucker recalled that she was hesitant about recording the album at first, saying, "I didn’t know if the songs were strong enough."[1]

The album was recorded over three weeks in January 2019, at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles.[2] Tucker stated in an interview on Acoustic Café that "High Ridin' Heroes" was the first song recorded for the album. Tucker recorded a cover of Dennis Quaid and the Sharks' "On My Way to Heaven" for the album, featuring Quaid and Kris Kristofferson on backing vocals, but it was not included on the album's final track listing.[3]

Content

The majority of the album was written by Brandi Carlile and twin brothers Tim and Phil Hanseroth. The trio wrote seven of the album's ten tracks. The remaining three songs are covers.

The album opens with "Mustang Ridge", described by Rolling Stone as the album's "sing-a-long mission statement,"[15] it contains references to locations in Tucker's native Texas: Mustang Ridge and San Antonio's Hays Street Bridge.[16] The second track, "The Wheels of Laredo", is described by Taste of Country as a "throbbing ballad that appears to acutely point at the contradictions inherent in the illegal immigration debate."[17] "I Don’t Owe You Anything", the third track, is a "sassy kiss-off from a middle-aged mother who’s had enough," sung over a down-home acoustic arrangement.[15] The album's fourth track, "The Day My Heart Goes Still", is a tribute to Tucker's father and manager, Beau, who died in 2006.[16] Track five, "High Ridin’ Heroes", is a cover of a song written by David Lynn Jones in 1987 and originally recorded by Jones as a duet with Waylon Jennings.[16]

The sixth track is a cover of Miranda Lambert’s 2010 hit, "The House That Built Me", which was written by Tom Douglas and Allen Shamblin. Tucker’s version transforms the song into a "deeply moving account of a parent who is searching for meaning in their life after the children have left behind a house whose emptiness becomes too much to bear."[16] The seventh track on the album, "Hard Luck", is another cover. It was written by John C. Bailey, David Lee Mitchell, Raymond L. Turner, and Jerry Ontiberoz, and originally recorded in 1979 by Texas proto-metal band Josefus. In Tucker's hands the song becomes "an outlaw anthem of survival."[16] The track features group background vocals from a number of people; including actor Dennis Quaid; Tucker's son, Grayson; and his father, Ben Reed. On the album's eighth track, "Rich", Tucker recalls the lean years spent traveling with her dad, which plays like her own version of Dolly Parton’s "Coat of Many Colors".[18] Rolling Stone compared "Seminole Wind Calling", the album's ninth track, to Tucker's 1972 debut single, "Delta Dawn", saying that it "conjures the country-gospel of her breakthrough debut."[15] The album closes with "Bring My Flowers Now", which was written by Tucker with Carlile and the Hanseroth brothers. The tender ballad is a reminder "to show appreciation for those we cherish while we still have that opportunity."[9]

Thierry Côté from Exclaim! gave the album a score of nine out of ten and said that the album "is perhaps the finest full-length in Tucker's storied five-decade career."[16] In a positive review for Variety, A.D. Amorosi praised Carlile and the Hanseroth's "intuitive songwriting" and said that Tucker "proudly inhabits their biographical approximation of her nine lives with earnestness and ease."[22] Jonathan Bernstein from Rolling Stone gave the album four out of five stars, praising the album's song selection and said that Tucker "never succumbs to old-age weariness."[15] In a review for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the album four out of five stars. He felt that Tucker's covers of "Hard Luck" and "The House That Built Me" "add texture and deepen the emotional undercurrents flowing through the record." He went on to say that when the covers are combined with the original songs "these tunes paint a portrait of a mighty artist who has been through a lot but is fearless about the future."[20] In a mixed review for Mojo, Fred Dellar said, "Tucker has created an album that should endear her to those who still raise the outlaw flag while also appealing to hard-edged pop-tinged rock believers."[21]
